I need to concentrate on fighting more. I don't practice as much as I did the past years and it shows. My progress is slow. But there's still some progress, so that's good. I won't give up. I may not have 4+ hours per week in helm anymore but my will to improve is the same. Let's just say that things are more challenging and I'll end up being better because of it. I still had fun fighting, it's always great to fight.
I also had the opportunity to shoot and even participate in my first archery tournament. My goal was to see if I could reach the targets. That was a success, even managed to hit it a few times. My score was poor, but I went out and I shot, that's a good first step considering it's been over a year. The archery community here is very different from Tir Righ. The dynamic is different. I've learned a great deal about making arrows and I'll try to make some this summer. I wanna try to spin silk to attach the fletching and make my own hide glue. Eventually I would like to get carded as a marshal so we can start shooting up here.
But first... learn to fight better. i know i can be much better and I will be much better. I don't see this time in the eric as a failure, I see it as a motivation to exceed the limits that my mind is trying to impose on me.
I'm not dead yet.
at líf skulur du spinna
þrír nornar ek biðja
at líf skulur du garna
þrír nornar ek biðja
at líf skulur du binda
...bindar við rótana...
Æsir, nornar,
víssa vanir
thursamærar
þrá valkyrjar
álfar dvergar
guðar vǫlva
efsta véurr
Yggdrasil
